The primary causes of secondary hypertension in children include renal disease, cardiovascular disease, endocrine disease and so on.
1. Renal diseases: most of the secondary hypertension in children is caused by renal diseases, such as benign and malignant tumors of kidney, renal vascular stenosis and other diseases.
2. Cardiovascular diseases: some children with congenital cardiovascular diseases are often prone to secondary hypertension, such as aortic stenosis.
3. Endocrine diseases: hyperthyroidism, pheochromocytoma, adrenal cortical hyperplasia and other endocrine diseases can also cause secondary hypertension in children.
Children with secondary hypertension should seek medical attention in time to clarify the cause of hypertension and then actively treat it.
